Description

Scarce 1843 Ten Dollar, AU55

1843 $10 AU55 NGC. Ex: S.S. Republic. The 1843
Philadelphia mintage is less than half of its New Orleans
counterpart, yet both issues trade at similar values due to
specialized demand from Southern gold collectors. This pale gold
example has ample luster across the eagle, borders, and hair. The
scattered abrasions are characteristic of the No Motto type. The
S.S. Republic sank in 1865, and carried a large and diverse
selection of Federal gold. Census: 35 in 55, 26 finer
(8/10).(Registry
values: N2998) (NGC ID# 262P, PCGS# 8588)
